Concepts of Video
• Resolution is the number of pixels in the area that
has been captured. This is usually measured in
megapixels. A higher setting for resolution when a
shot is being captured will mean better quality but of
course, a higher file size.
• The bit-rate is the number of bits that are sent in
one second when transmitting a video file. If the
data cannot be sent quickly enough then the video
will not be able to display in real-time.
• Common file types: AVI (Audio Video Interleave
and a standard developed by Microsoft) , MPEG
(Moving Picture Expert Group)

where (xi, yi) and (xi-1, yi-1) are adjacent for 1 ≤ i ≤ n. Here
n is the length of the path.
• We can define 4-, 8-, and m-paths based on the type of connectivity used.
